Shaquille O’Neal has been a wonderful father to his kids, but the big man lets them know from time to time just who is the main man in the O’Neal household.

In the second season of the Shaq Life show, he hilariously took a “tax bite” from his kids’ food because he is the king of the family!

“What’d you get?” O’Neal asked his son Shaqir, who replied that he had Lemon Pepper Chicken. Shaq asked for it and when his son told him to just eat the whole thing, Shaq replied, “No, tax bite.” He then explained his actions by saying, “As the King of the family, you gotta make sure you get a cut.”

He then proceeded to take his tax bite from others as well, and it was a hilarious scene. If you stay in his house, be prepared to let him have a bite of your food as tax! It also serves as motivation for them to go out there and make it on their own and be the top dog themselves.

Shaq also made it clear to the six kids he has that they’re not rich as a family but that he’s the only rich one. He stated that the only way he lets them touch his money is if they work hard and achieve great things on their own in their lives. It is a great way of parenting, and hopefully, they all go on to have success in their respective fields.


Shaquille O’Neal Doesn’t Like Rich People’s Food

For a man who has all the money in the world after a stellar NBA career, Shaq says he doesn’t like rich people’s food. He hilariously stated that he only wanted chicken wings, pizza, and chips! While that isn’t the ideal diet, it is evident that Shaq doesn’t go overboard with it, as he is still in fantastic shape.

He has shown himself as a great example to follow for his kids, and it clearly seems to be a very lovely household to be a part of. They all seem to enjoy poking fun at each other, too, as one of his sons, Myles once gave Shaq his “tax bite” by stuffing Cheetos into his mouth and nose while he was asleep!

His passion for the sport was ignited after witnessing the high-octane offense of the Steve Nash-led Phoenix Suns. Among the Suns, Shawn Marion stood out to Gautam as an all-time underrated NBA player. Marion’s versatility as a defender and his rebounding prowess, despite being just 6’7”, impressed Gautam immensely. He admired Marion’s finishing ability at the rim and his shooting, despite an unconventional jump shot, believing that Marion’s skill set would have been even more appreciated in today’s NBA.This transformative experience not only deepened his love for basketball but also shaped his approach to sports writing, enabling him to connect with readers through vivid storytelling and insightful analysis.
